Free ATS Résumé Audit for Scrum Masters and Agile Coaches
What a resume audit for Agile professionals actually checks
Most resume tools were built for generic job seekers. A Scrum Master, Product Owner, or Release Train Engineer resume fails for reasons a template checker never sees: outcomes written as responsibilities, framework keywords (Scrum, SAFe, Kanban, PI Planning) missing in the form the ATS scans for, and seniority signals that don't match the band you're targeting.
This audit was built specifically for Agile roles. It checks three things a generic resume review misses:
1. ATS pass-through. Whether an applicant tracking system can actually parse your resume and surface it for Agile role keywords, before a human ever sees it.
2. Outcome framing. Whether your bullets read as "facilitated ceremonies" (a responsibility) or "cut cycle time 40% across three teams" (an outcome). Senior Agile roles are won on outcomes.
3. Seniority signal. Whether your resume positions you for the band you're aiming at, senior Scrum Master, RTE, Agile Coach, or Agile leadership, rather than the one you're leaving.
If you're a Scrum Master, Product Owner, RTE, or Agile Coach and your applications are going quiet, the problem is usually one of these three. The audit tells you which.
Frequently asked questions
Is the audit really free?
Yes. You get your ATS health score, a full category breakdown, and a sample fix at no cost. No card required.
What are the "14 red flags"?
They're the 14 things that most often get agile résumés screened out by an ATS or skimmed past by a recruiter, from weak verbs and missing metrics to a title that doesn't match the role or a résumé that contradicts your LinkedIn.
Is my résumé data safe?
Your résumé is analyzed to generate your score and isn't shared or sold. We only store the email you provide so we can follow up with tips and offers.
What's the difference between the free audit and the full report?
The free audit shows your score, category breakdown, and one sample fix. The full report unlocks the exact problem, interview cost, and precise rewrite for every flag we find.
One-Job Kit vs. Pro: what do I get?
The One-Job Kit ($29 once) covers one application for 30 days: every fix on your report, 1 Agile JD Match, and 1 Resume Studio build (a tailored résumé and cover letter). Pro ($14/mo) gives you unlimited audits, re-scores, JD Matches and Resume Studio builds for every role.
Can I cancel Pro anytime?
Yes. Use the "Manage my subscription" link to cancel in seconds. You keep access through the period you've paid for.
Who is this for?
Scrum Masters, Product Owners, RTEs, and Agile Coaches. It's tuned to how agile experience actually gets evaluated.
Can I get human help?
Absolutely. Every result links to a free 15-minute discovery call where we turn your audit into an interview-winning résumé and career strategy.
Will it make up experience or inflate my résumé?
No, and that's the whole point. We never invent metrics, employers, or scope you don't have. If your résumé is a stretch for a role, we tell you the honest score and the real gap. The rewrites sharpen your actual experience into its strongest true form, never a fabrication a recruiter would catch.
How is this different from Jobscan or other resume scanners?
Generic tools match keywords. They don't know the difference between a team-level Scrum Master and a program-level RTE, or "ceremonies vs. outcomes," or what a hiring manager for a SAFe role actually wants. We're built only for agile practitioners (Scrum Masters, Product Owners, RTEs, Agile Coaches), so the audit and the JD match read your résumé the way an agile hiring manager does. Targeting a Release Train Engineer or senior Product Owner role? See RTE and Product Owner coaching.
What's included in Pro?
Everything in the free audit, plus: the exact problem, cost, and fix for every red flag (not just one sample); unlimited audits and re-scoring after each edit; and Agile JD Match: paste any agile job description and get your résumé scored against that exact role, with the gaps and honest rewrites tuned to it. It also includes Resume Studio: a tailored résumé and cover letter for every job, with Word and PDF export. $14/mo, cancel anytime.
What is Agile JD Match?
A Pro feature for when you're applying to a specific role. Paste the job description and we score your résumé against that posting: a match score, the agile competencies that role wants that you're not surfacing, and honest bullet rewrites tuned to it. Every job description is different, so re-run it for each role you apply to. Want a résumé rebuilt around one specific posting? Resume Studio, included with Pro and the One-Job Kit, builds a tailored résumé and cover letter for that exact job.
Do I have to subscribe, or can I pay once?
No subscription needed. The One-Job Kit is $29 once and covers one application end to end. Applying to several roles? Pro ($14/mo) works out cheaper.
What is a resume audit for Scrum Masters and Agile professionals?
It is a review built specifically for Agile roles (Scrum Master, Product Owner, Release Train Engineer, and Agile Coach) that checks whether an applicant tracking system can parse your resume, whether your bullets are framed as outcomes rather than responsibilities, and whether your resume signals the seniority band you are targeting. Generic resume checkers miss all three.
